kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_craigsrh-lv_root rd_NO_LUKS LANG=en_US.UTF-8
rd_NO_MD SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 crashkernel=auto rd_LVM_LV=vg_craigsrh/lv_swap rd_LVM_LV=vg_craigsrh/
lv_root KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us rd_NO_DM rhgb quiet fnic.fnic_max_qdepth=128
2. Reboot for the new fnic_max_qdepth to take effect.
RHEL 5.x
1. In /etc/modprobe.conf, add an “options fnic” line to set fnic_max_qdepth at boot time:
options fnic fnic_log_level=4 fnic_trace_max_pages=128 fnic_max_qdepth=128
2. Rebuild initrd:
mkinitrd -v -f /boot/initrd-`uname -r`.img `uname –r`
3. Reboot for the new fnic_max_qdepth to take effect.
ESX 5.x
1. Set fnic_max_qdepth by running the following command in ESX 5 CLI:
# esxcli system module parameters set –p fnic_max_qdepth=128 –m fnic
2. Reboot for the new fnic_max_qdepth to take effect.
Load-Time Configuration
RHEL / SLES11 / XS
1. Run one of the following commands at the CLI:
# modprobe fnic fnic_max_qdepth=128
or
